Turtle Reef Kayaking & Snorkeling Tour

Description

Get a chance to snorkel with majestic Hawaiian green sea turtles during a kayak tour at Makena Landing. Located just minutes south of Kihei, Wailea, and Makena, this area is considered by many as the premier location on Maui for kayaking and snorkeling.

Head to Makena Bay, famous for green sea turtles as well as exceptional kayaking and snorkeling conditions. Home to “Turtle Town,” Makena is consistently the one of the most reliable spots for sunshine and offers calm waters, a gorgeous coastline, stunning reefs, and an excellent variety of sea life. While it is close to Wailea and Kihei, visitors drive all the way from Lahaina and Ka`anapali.

Don your snorkel and explore “Turle Town,” home to a high concentration of Hawaiian green sea turtles, or honu, and rays, dolphins, and Hawaiian monk seals are commonly spotted here as well. During whale season, typically October to April, you have the opportunity to see humpback whales during their annual migration to the islands to mate.

Matt and Jacob are amazing guides and we hab a blast. Saw lots of whales, fish and turtles. 5/5 would go again.

This was my husband and I’s first activity we did while on our honeymoon and we were left a bit disappointed. Our tour guide was an older ex-military man who had very little patience when it came to tourists. We had a small group, my husband and myself, and another family of four. Only 6 people and he couldn’t handle making this experience enjoyable. I assume he was very knowledgeable, as he said he has been giving tours with this company for 18 years, but yet he very rarely talked about the island, or about the sea life. He spent most of the time critizing the group. My husband and I went on a snorkeling cruise the next morning, and it was a much better experience, and we saw way more turtles than we did with this group. I would suggest looking around at different companies before booking with this one.
